Oven Fried Chicken Tenders With Five Spice Bbq Sauce Recipes

FIVE-SPICE CHICKEN TENDERS WITH A KICKIN BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Optional: Brine the chicken breasts for about three hours.
• 2. MAKING THE BBQ SAUCE
• 3. Chef's Note: When I talk about using ketchup in this recipe, I would really hope you choose a homemade variety. Otherwise you are making a condiment out of a condiment. Besides, store-bought ketchup has things in it, other than ketchup. Go homemade... if you can. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/versatile-homemade-ketchup.html?r=1
• 4. Chef's Note: If you are not making the BBQ sauce, then skip down to step 11.

• 15. While the chicken is resting, beat the eggs and place them in a shallow pan.
